Island Time Tavern - Emerald Isle

Awesome quiet place to enjoy the water front and enjoy cold beverages shoot a game of pool or just sit on the patio deck and enjoy the wildlife .

Great, cozy little bar for hanging out and have some delicious drinks and fun. Really enjoyed it!

This is hands down the best bar on the island. Possibly the best bar in the state. Amazing atmosphere, every surface is spotless, the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and intensely capable. Great specials and games set up to keep a large group entertained for hours. We went back two nights in a row we enjoyed so much.

We had a wonderful time enjoying drinks on the terrace in February, which is something we can't do at home. The early evening ambiance was just right. The drinks were fantastic; my husband chose some IPAs while I had a Cosmo and the Coconut Dreamz. Everything was just perfect. Carl was amazing—he was a pleasure to chat with. We will definitely return when we're in the area again.

On Saturday night, the place was entirely empty, and I can see why. We approached the bar and sat down, only to be met with the bartender's disdainful gaze. When we innocently asked if he had any food available, his response was unexpectedly rude, as he dismissively indicated that this was a bar, not a restaurant. It seemed like an unnecessary reaction to a simple question.
